       Another 19-year-old British national was inside the vehicle, but suffered only minor injuries.

       Authorities said both occupants of the vehicle were wearing helmets at the time of the crash, while driving "at a slow speed".

       An investigation is underway by local police, and a toxicological exam will be taken from the deceased teenager.

       Last week, Rory Deegan, 22, from Oldtown, Cullohill, Co Laois, and a student at the Technological University of the Shannon in Limerick were found dead in a swimming pool on the same Greek island.
